There is no jackdbus on debian wheezy, just "jackd" or "jackd2". > If you are using qjackctl there is a checkbox under misc "Enable D-Bus > interface" that has to be checked. > That helps which means that debian wheezy has support for pulseaudio, module-jackdbus-detect and jackd2 by default but there is still an error: ==== Failed to acquire device name : Audio0 error : Method "RequestRelease" with signature "i" on interface "org.freedesktop.ReserveDevice1" doesn't exist Audio device hw:0 cannot be acquired... ==== What I find completely bizarre is that the top 5 hits on google for this error have people recommending to disable pulseaudio or use an alternate method to connect. It seems people have known about this issue for a while and been ignoring it or waiting for someone else to figure it out. -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
